any idea if the game will come with any actual promotional legos? and will Lincoln Logs now target the 007 franchise? but yeah, it does look hilarious and i'm pretty curious to see some footage of the game in action.

The gameplay doesn't look as choppy as I imagined. Except the first movie is just a couple of guys running around a room picking up some kinda coin.

He isnt. He is just much closer than Anakin. There is some kind of magnification on Obi and Dooku, so it creates the illusion that it is a small amount of space, so it looks like Yoda is tall. :p

Because the LEGO Mini-Figure of Yoda, of which all of the games characters are based on the LEGO Mini-Figures, is almost as tall as the standard LEGO Mini-Figures. :D

Yes I do collect the Star Wars LEGO sets. :p

Which they did, so that Yoda would look much closer than the others. They built him based on apparent size. I stand by my explaination. :p

If you care to look again, you can see I was addressing Hannibal's original question, just like you did. I never even touched upon the same points your explination did...

From the description of the game, it sounds like the best game ever, if it wasn't in Lego form (not a knock against Lego).

My eyes can measure distance and perspective.
If you look at the lines in the pattern on the floor they help to judge distance the distance between Yoda and Anakin. If you move Yoda back he is still almost as tall as Anakin.

Anyway, wouldn't it be crazy if a Lego game was the best SW "Action" game ever?

If Lego SW has no saberdown feature, I say yes.

Yes I noticed the lines. I was suggesting that it was an optical illusion, and that they were more spaced than it appears. I had no intention of being taken seriously, and I hope I wasn't.

The Star Wars LEGO game will rule all! :D

Especially if we could assemble our main character from the various mini-figure parts. :)

Yah, the legoTM game will rule if we can do that..
And there shall be many legoTM parts!

No big deal. Let's just all agree it looks like Obi-wan is wearing a wig. :)

Of course he does, he is a LEGO mini-figure after all, IMO all the mini-figs with hair look that way! :D

Meh.

I have yet to be convinced that it might become a good game. Lego video games don't have a good record.

While I am a great Lego lover, I do not posess a Lego Yoda, I can compare a Lego Regular character with a wig with a Lego Ewok.

Ewok: 1 1/4 inch

Regular character with Anakin's wig: 1 1/2 inch.

Only a quarter of an inch difference between the regular with an Ewok. Assuming Yoda is roughly the size of my Lego Ewok, it's normal they're almost the same size :D

lol thats funny kinda.

I don't think it would be a good game though, most logo games don't have much of a storyline, in harry potter you just run around collecting this thingies you dont reall do much.

And legos are made for hand use.
